About

Senior Product Designer.
7+ years shipping.

Based in Curitiba, Brazil. I design IRIS — NETZSCH's global industrial HMI platform — end-to-end, and these days almost entirely AI-driven. On the side I build solo SaaS products, like Nerida.

Seven-plus years across industrial SaaS, design systems, fintech, and public-sector platforms — with a game-design background underneath it all. B2B, complex domains, and AI-native workflows are where I'm most useful.

Journey

From games to SaaS.

I started in games. I studied game design and shipped two of my own — a narrative third-person shooter and an experimental 3D game built around gravity. That's where I learned to think in systems, feedback, and pacing, and it's still how I read an interface: what does it teach you, and how fast?

From there: mobile, fintech, public-sector, and enterprise — and now industrial software for the engineers running NETZSCH instruments. My focus today is B2B, design systems, and shipping, increasingly through AI-native workflows: I pair design intent with LLM-powered build to take products end-to-end, from a multi-tenant clinical SaaS to internal tools.

Outside of work

Off the clock.

Three French Bulldogs at home — Link, Koda, and Bolt. They run my mornings and sit in on every call.

Running on weekends — back on an Apple Watch after a long Garmin detour. And games, still: I grew up making them and I still play them closely. A well-built game teaches pacing, feedback, and restraint as well as any design book — that's not a metaphor, it's where a lot of my instincts come from.

I cook when I have the patience and order when I don't. I read more interface code than design theory.
